Description
The Fender American Ultra II Jazz Bass in Ultraburst with an ebony fingerboard is made for bassists who want top-tier playability and tone-shaping options. It's ideal for serious gigging players, studio musicians, or anyone who needs an instrument that can adapt to different styles without compromise. As part of Fender's most advanced line, this Jazz Bass brings together classic looks with modern refinements.
This model pairs a select alder body with a quartersawn maple neck and an ebony fingerboard. The 10"-14" compound radius with ultra-rolled edges and medium jumbo frets makes it smooth and comfortable whether you're laying down grooves or moving into higher register fills. Under the hood, Ultra II Noiseless Vintage Jazz Bass pickups power the sound. They give you vintage warmth and modern clarity, all without hum. The active/passive S-1 switching system, 3-band EQ, and switchable midrange frequencies give you fine control over your sound for any situation.
On the hardware side, the HiMass bridge offers excellent sustain and stability, and you can choose either string-through-body or top-load. Lightweight Fender tuners and locking strap buttons make it stage-ready and reliable. The Ultraburst finish paired with a gold anodized pickguard gives this one a classic, refined look. We like this model for players who want all the tonal options of a modern active bass while keeping that unmistakable Jazz Bass feel.
